Outcomes

Testing was presented to prospective students as part of the intake process. Adult learners interested in ABE and CTE programs are tested in a stress-free environment to reduce test anxiety. The Data Manager and certified staff can proctor exams to individual adult learners or groups.

The Data

The data collected is aligned to meet AEP requirements and has helped the consortium make decisions about adult education in West Kern. For example, in 2019, West Kern Adult Education applied and was granted a WIOA grant. The decision to apply for WIOA was influenced by data demonstrating a large concentration of youth 18-24 years old seeking resources at the WKAEN.
